Can You Find Comfort In a 220 Sq. Ft. Home?

How small is too small? It’s not the size of the home that’s most important, but how it is space-planned.

This past weekend, in Vancouver, at the Interior Design Show West this 220 square foot home was showcased. In an expensive city like Vancouver, having a stand-alone home with all the modern comforts, in a tiny footprint,  sounds like a challenge worth pursuing.  The L41 home by Vancouver architect Michael Katz and designer/artist Janet Corne is a modern cube home.

Small Home

Looks pretty good, nestled amongst the trees, no?

Small House

The Vancouver Sun discusses this house here:

The L41 home – a play on all for one – is the brainchild of Vancouver architect Michael Katz and designer/artist Janet Corne, partners in life, as well as design. It’s their first prototype dwelling together: a tiny, modern cube dressed in white, stainless, zinc, glass and charcoal grey.

The above sofa is from Ben Sen, a Vancouver-based furniture company. It’s a sofa bed, very much like our own (also a Ben Sen one).

Small House

Prices have just being released for L41 modular homes (prices do not include taxes, delivery from factory, foundation or services). Studio 250 sq. ft: $90,000; One bedroom 350 sq. ft $105,000; Two bedroom 450 sq. ft $120,000.

Little Home

Those prices seem really affordable, even with the extras fees and land involved. Could you see yourself living in a home that small?

    yes, I suppose it is—this one seems well-organized, and a bit wider than many motorhomes though…like more open-concept

    It’s hard to find educated people in this particular topic, however, you sound like you know what you’re talking about!

    Thanks
